8KNXP Memory Suggestions Please
Just got a 8KNXP Rev 2.0 MB, and wanted some opinions on memory for
this board. I will not be OC'ing, just want FAST but MORE importantly STABLE RAM. From the posts I have been reading this MB seems somewhat snooty about the brand and speed of memory. Will be getting a matched pair for 1GB total RAM. Any suggestions pros and cons appreciated, also tips on board setting for stability for the RAM. Thanks |

They are very stable with +0.1V DIMM Overvoltage set in BIOS. Orhan |

I am VERY impressed with the kingmax so far. It's PC3500 2.5 and I'm clocking it pretty hard right now and it's been NO trouble........paid about 200 bucks for a gig. dv |

Can I run memory with wider bandwidth on the 8KNXP such as PC4000? I
realize it won't do me any good on this system, but I'm considering buying upgraded RAM so I can put it in a future system w/o repurchasing.

(I'm on my second -- first one got RMA'd when it decided to die after 8 months of use.) I run OCZ PC3200 EL Dual Channel RAM; c.f., http://www.ocztechnology.com/product...0_Dual_Channel I have always run it with 2-6-3-2 timings, and both of my 8KNXP mobos appeared to be quite stable with these timings. (I use a +0.1 DIMM overvoltage setting, but have not overclocked the cpu/fsb.) -kris |
